Meaning of “long funding lease” etc U.K.

70G “Long funding lease” U.K.

(1) A “long funding lease” is a funding lease (see section 70J) which meets the following conditions—

(a) it is not a short lease (see section 70I),

(b) it is not an excluded lease of background plant or machinery for a building (see section 70R),

(c) it not excluded by section 70U (plant or machinery leased with land: low percentage value).

(2) Where, at the commencement of the term of a plant or machinery lease, the plant or machinery—

(a) is not being used for the purposes of a qualifying activity carried on by the person concerned, but

(b) subsequently begins to be used for the purposes of a qualifying activity carried on by that person,

the plant or machinery lease is a long funding lease if the condition in subsection (3) is met.

(3) The condition is that (apart from section 70H) the plant or machinery lease would have been a long funding lease at its inception had the plant or machinery been used at that time for the purposes of a qualifying activity carried on by the person concerned.

(4) This section is subject, in the case of the lessee, to—

(a) section 70H (requirement for tax return treating lease as long funding lease);

(b) section 70Q (leases excluded by right of lessor etc to claim capital allowances).

(5) See also paragraph 91A of Schedule 22 to [F2 FA] 2000 (tonnage tax: certain leases to be treated as not being long funding leases).]
